More Endurance in Less Time!

Most people's primary motivation for working out involves weight loss. Traditionally, experts suggest doing a minimum of 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise at a moderate intensity three to five times a week in conjunction with resistance training two to three times per week. Realistically, most of us can't commit that much time to the gym. The good news is we don't have to. Read full story...

Answering the question....

What should I eat?

Like I always tell clients, it's not rocket science! Most of us know what we should and shouldn't put into our bodies. But with all of the fad diets and conflicting information from the media, it seems the goal is to confuse the American population rather than help.

The Harvard School of Public Health has great information regarding nutrition including, a modified healthy eating pyramid guide, breakdown of macro-nutrients, exercise tips, and much more!

I highly encourage anyone looking for honest information based on sound science to check out their website!

"THE BIG CARL!"

Leave it to Carls Jr. to out do the original provider of our gluttonous ways (otherwise known as McDonalds). Their current gut bomb "The Big Carl" has waged war against the now feeble looking Big Mac. Poking fun at it's redundant third bun, lack of girth, and high price tag. Why have a Big Mac? For only $2.49, you can get a 1/2 lb. Big Carl, stretching your dollar and waistband further. This sizzling, greasy beauty will take care of half of your daily sodium and calorie requirements. Talk about efficient!!! You'll be fatter in half the time! Hell, why not make it a meal? Add fries, a large coke and you're set! 2000 calories later your well on your way to cardiac arrest or a diabetic coma if you opt for a shake instead of soda pop!

Big Mac...you were a worthy champion for so long! Unfortunately you haven't evolved and like any prize fighter... it's time to step down.

America let me introduce to you...the new heavy weight champion...THE BIG CARL!
